Job Description:Job ComplexityWorks on significant and unique development and support issues where analysis of situations or data requires an evaluation of intangibles along with an in-depth understanding of the underlying design/constraints and implementation techniques used. Exercises independent judgment in methods, techniques and evaluation criteria for obtaining results. Creates formal networks involving coordination among groups and works well with individuals and teams spread across geographical time-zones.
Technical Skills/ backgroundStrong understanding of VLSI and ASIC physical design
- Should have basic understanding of PLLs and clock networks
- Should be familiar with design elements like flip flops, latches, memories, and basic CMOS logic gates
Experience using a static timing analysis tool. Preferably Synopsys PrimeTime and/or Cadence Tempus.
- Ability to create and debug timing constraints
- Ability to understand and debug warning and error messages from the timing tool
- Ability to generate and understand timing reports
Understanding of basic STA concepts
- Solid understanding of RC networks and how they affect the timing/propagation of signals
- Understanding of Signal Integrity, Crosstalk Delay, and Glitch/Noise Analysis
- Understanding of setup analysis, hold analysis, and other timing checks
- Ability to understand and create timing diagrams
Preferred understanding of more advanced STA concepts
- POCV/SOCV/LVF modeling of variation
- MIS - multi input switching
- CCS/ECSM/NLDM - liberty timing models
- PBA - path based analysis
- LOCV/SOCV - location aware timing derates
Experience on timing SOIC/ 3DIC designs a plus
Experience using SPICE analysis
Coding experience- TCL is required. Experience with at least one or two other coding languages is preferred
